# Home Assistant (Portainer template)
|
|
|
|
Home Assistant is an open-source home automation platform that puts local control and privacy first. It acts as a central hub for smart home devices, allowing for complex automation and integration across thousands of different brands.
|
|
|
|
Quick notes:
|
|
|
|
- **Network Mode**: For many integrations (like discovery of smart bulbs or TVs), it is highly recommended to use `network_mode: host`.
|
|
- **Persistence**: Ensure the `/config` directory is mapped to a persistent volume to save your configuration, dashboards, and integrations.
|
|
- **Devices**: If you are using Zigbee or Z-Wave USB sticks, you will need to map the device path (e.g., `/dev/ttyUSB0`) into the container.
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
|
|
1. Import the compose file into Portainer's Stacks or App Templates.
|
|
2. Configure the volume mapping for the configuration folder.
|
|
3. (Optional) Set the timezone environment variable (e.g., `TZ=America/New_York`).
|
|
4. Deploy the stack via Portainer.
|
|
5. Access the web interface at `http://<your-ip>:8123` to begin the onboarding process.
